Tablespace are the only main difference between 8.0 and 7.4 as far as
psql is concerned, so the patch will allow psql to work against 7.4
servers seamlessly.

If I get time, I will begin making psql backward-compatible to 7.3 and
further, but the changes to do so will not be as small as this patch
and I would rather they get evaluated separately.
